FLOWER BENCH

Maine Benches

My friend Alice sends me these two lovely benches from Maine, America.

The first is from the Thuya Gardens...



And the second from Rockefeller Garden...

Found in the garden of The Old Fire Engine, Ely

Possibly the best bench inscription ever.

Pioneer Bench art

These two beauties are from The Museum of the West, Old Trapper's Lodge, Burbank, California. They are made by John Ehn who was born of Swedish pioneer parents in 1896. The life size statues on the benches are made from sand and cement over an iron core and wire mesh.

Taken in the Middle Temple, London (just before I got locked in!)

Please welcome....

Because in this busy old cyberspace, we all need as many different places to sit and stare as possible.
